By Mildred Lodewick | Description. HE woman who makes an = impres- sion in a crowd Is not the one who is merely prettily at- tired, tut the one whose clothes are smart. While a smart dress is of necessity pretty, as it must please the eye in regard to color and Iine, @ pretty dress does not of necessity have any elements of the mode to make {it smart Most women have a keen desire td look smart; but, alas! too few of them are bdiessed with a sense of the innate fitness of things to accom. plish distinetive et. fects In thelr dress, If they would but realize that smart- ness {8 a matter of simplicity more than anything else, its achtevement would not be so diMeult. A sparse bit of trimming tn the right place and some distinctive detall to catch the eye ara sufficient to make a simple frock smart, as my design to-day will attest, Light weight serge, crepe de chine, satin or elk are suitable fabrics for this de. sign. The front view suggests dark blue serge for the entire frock, with tiny @ash onda lined with some such color as old gold, cherry red, purple or emerald green. Whichever color is chosen, it may be repeated in the embroidery across the front, where gold and dlack threads are also seen. The long, snug sleeves set into a dropped arm- hole are neatly finished with able band of embfoldery, using one or two colors, while the neck line ts given but one band, The back view offers a pretty sug- SMART trophies, and she recognizes it as the one that she had hung about Eric's neck In the hay loft of Domreny.

Aftor many victories, Joan finally leads ber King to Rheims to be crowned. La Tremoilie, “The Spider,” unable to stop the coronation, goes secretly ahead of Charles and Joan to Rheims, to solicit the ald of his friend, the Bishop Cauchon, Cauchon, though supposedly a loyal French- man, is really planning Charles's de- struction to further his amobl- tion with the English. He promises to belp the worried Tremoilie and prepares @ potson cup to offer to the King when Tremoille shall have brought Charles to lodge in his house the night before the cor. nation, own Charles and Joan arrty and gentlemen of thee has the wine cup passed to Char with ladies irt, Cauchon Joan has instantly felt a stra ah ke of Cauchon As the is about to drink, Joan suddenly sees a vision of St. Michael's armored hand only, grasping tho radiant sword, which he points directly to the wine cup.

The King, laughing, urges her to choose something of more value, but Joan wishes nothing more Uncle Laxart, who has not seen Joan since her departure from the Governor's so long before, has travelled the long journey to Rheims to see what great lady his little niece has become.
